So I noticed tonight my pitho crab had my diamond goby in his claws going to town. Goby was upside down but still alive. Anyone ever heard of this before? Goby was healthy and no issues this morning. Was something wrong with the goby and the crab took advantage or can crab just grab a fish like this? Lol
 
Likely something was wrong with the fish. Fish can normally get away from a crab pretty easy, crabs can't swim after all, they can only walk.
 
No way pitho catches and kills a healthy goby.
 
Thx. That’s kind of what I figured. Odd the fish would just turn ill just like that
